What is the Parallel Youth Games?

The Parallel Youth Games is a ‘mini-Paralympics’, showcasing and celebrating disability sport in Sussex. It gives young people the opportunity to be defined not by their disability, but instead by their inspirational achievements while creating positive lasting memories.

The Sussex Parallel Youth Games is the only, multi-sport participation, event of its size for children with disabilities in Sussex.

Organised by Active Sussex, with support from partners, it provides a non-competitive, thrilling experience for young people to try out sports and learn new skills such as teamwork and leadership.
